A multivariate CVAR(1) model for some observed variables and some unobserved variables is analysed using its infinite order CVAR representation of the observations. Cointegration and adjustment coefficients in the infinite order CVAR are found as functions of the parameters in the CVAR(1) model....

In this paper I propose a novel optimal linear filter for smoothing, trend and signal extraction for time series with a unit root. The filter is based on the Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) methodology, takes the form of a particular moving average and is different from other linear filters...

We study semi-parametric estimation and inference in cointegrated panels with endogenous feedback, allowing for general time-series and cross-section dependence and heterogeneity.Central to this literature are the fully-modified OLS of Phillips and Hansen (1990) that use a spectral...

We consider the Fractional Vector Error Correction model proposed in Avarucci (2007), which is characterized by a richer lag structure than the models proposed in Granger (1986) and Johansen (2008, 2009). In particular, we discuss the properties of the model of Avarucci (2007) (FECM) in...

This chapter examines the problems of dealing with trending type data when there is uncertainty over whether or not we really have unit roots in the data. This uncertainty is practical – for many macroeconomic and financial variables theory does not imply a unit root in the data however unit...

During the last decades a wide literature has focused on the relationship volume-volatility on financial markets. This paper investigates the temporal dynamics of volatility and volumes, supposing, as in Bollerslev and Jubinsky (1999), that the link has to be found in their long-run...

In this paper, we study the dynamic interdependencies between high-frequency volatility, liquidity demand as well as trading costs in an electronic limit order book market. Using data from the Australian Stock Exchange we model 1-min squared mid-quote returns, average trade sizes, number of...

This paper develops parameter instability and structural change tests within predictive regressions for economic systems governed by persistent vector autoregressive dynamics. Specifically, in a setting where all – or a subset – of the variables may be fractionally integrated and the...
